I think people don’t understand that a general strike is an ongoing shutdown. They think it’s like going on a march one Sunday afternoon.
Also, a general strike while hurting the billionaires, would also hurt the people and more so democrat supporting urban areas - to the point where many people would have no food. The billionaires could wait it out (they won’t starve), and the fascist federal forces would come down hard on the eventual riots.
Billionaires will not starve no, however you’d be naive to think that billionaires are content as long as they don’t starve.
Billionnaires need to be getting richer at an ever increasing pace to actually be content. That’s how you become a billionaire in the first place.
Billionaires don’t want serious damage to the economy as that’s not going to help them getting richer, quite the contrary. Just like strikers will give in when continuing means that they will starve, billionaire will give in before their profits and assets take a serious hit (or will do what it take to get the people in charge to give in)
